Hmm well i downloaded it. And it came already installed in a zip. So i unzipped it and tried to play it but i couldnt. I tried changing the compatibility with no luck.
Ive been on some quake forums but didnt really find much.
So is it possible to play it?
Tnx for the help |

You're wrong, abandonware is not legal.
And how do these guests get away with quadruply posting crap. Where are the moderators? |

Abandonware isn't illegal, it's just discontinued...which means he can get limited technical support for the game!!
Depending on your version of Windows you might need a DOS Emulator to run Quake. If you are playing it on a 95/98 Machine restart the computer in MS-DOS Mode. |
